After roughly figuring out the whole story, Xu Bai did not rush to make any announcement. Instead, he notified the people at the Tianliang Prefecture Garrison to temporarily block Wuliang Mountain, and brought Fu Xingchi and the others back first and imprisoned him. Then he stood still and waited patiently for the day to come.
Nangong Shirong, the lord of Liang City, is back.
Since he had given instructions before leaving, he, his subordinate, should also abide by it.
not to mention……
Over the years, the Infinite Wall has swallowed up monks, causing many people to disappear. Strictly speaking, it has something to do with Li Fan, his boss.
After all, before becoming the Lord of Tianliang City, Nangong Shirong served as the commander of the Tianliang Prefecture Garrison. He had never been aware of such a big thing happening in the territory...
If you are criticized, no matter what, you will inevitably be guilty of dereliction of duty. Not long after Nangong Shirong became the city lord, his foundation was not stable. At that time, he stepped on Xiang Rongxin and offended many people. If he were not careful,
, exposed a flaw, and attracted a group of people to attack. I am afraid that this city lord will be kicked out before he can take the position.
Xu Bai, as his confidant, naturally has to share the burden for the city lord.
Xu Bai secretly backed up the information on the disappearances over the years, and then went to the Bu Zheng Hall to entertain Guan Xingxiu, who had come to investigate again.
Different from the lazy look he saw in Lanlin Prefecture in his last life, Guan Xingxiu at this moment is like an unsheathed sword, unabashedly exuding his edge.
"I've met Senior Guan..." Xu Bai bowed his hands and saluted.
"Is there any clue about Chang Ge's whereabouts now?" Guan Xingxiu looked at Xu Bai's appearance and narrowed his eyes slightly. His originally aggressive words could not help but become a little more relaxed.
"We have found clues. I believe I will be able to give senior an answer soon." Xu Bai said neither humble nor overbearing.
"The work efficiency is so low. If I were in Tianyu Prefecture, you would have been dismissed and investigated." Guan Xingxiu snorted coldly.
Xu Bai lowered his head and did not answer.
"I'll give you another seven days. If by that time, there is still no definite result..."
A golden flying sword suddenly flew out and hung above the Bu Zheng Hall.
"Don't blame me for being ungrateful!" Guan Xingxiu's tone was solemn, and his figure gradually disappeared.
Only the small golden sword was left, bursting with awe-inspiring killing intent.
"Falling Star Divine Sword..."
The actual desire to kill almost stung Xu Bai's skin, and he had to stay away for the time being. He looked up at the golden flying sword above his head, and before his eyes he seemed to see a sword flying into the sky and stars falling.
This sword is no stranger to him.
In the last life, when he and Huangfusong went to Lanlin Prefecture to popularize and build the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Array, they invited Guan Xingxiu's [Falling Star Divine Sword] to suppress the dissatisfied local monks in Lanlin Prefecture. At that time, Guan Xingxiu
Although he has fallen to the realm of god transformation, relying on this golden flying sword, he can travel smoothly. Even the Lianhe Dao monks have to avoid its sharp edge.
It is enough to show that [Falling Star Divine Sword] is extraordinary.
At this moment, Xu Bai looked at the golden flying sword and was not angry. Instead, he observed it carefully.
"This sword is not inferior to the elders of Tianjian Sect. No wonder Guan Changge feels admiration for it."
Feeling the extremely sharp breath coming from it, vowing to split everything, Xu Bai was immersed in his mind.
I don't know how long it took, but Nangong Shirong's angry and fearful voice woke Xu Bai up.
"Old guy, you go too far to bully others. If you can't beat him..."
Xu Bai pretended not to hear the second half of the sentence, cupped his hands and said: "My lord, you are back."
"No wonder Lao Guan is so impatient. As soon as something happened to Guan Changge's front leg, he came over to accuse him. It turns out that Guan Changge is the son of his old lover." Nangong Shirong waved his hand, signaling Xu Bai not to use it.
Duo Li. Then he sat down and said with some gloating.
"So, Guan Changge is Guan Xingxiu's illegitimate son?" Xu Bai was a little confused.
But Nangong Shirong's next words caught him off guard: "No. There is no actual blood relationship between the two of them. It's just an old-fashioned, bloody story about love. Lao Guan looks like a murderer.
He doesn't blink, but secretly he is an infatuated person. Even though his old lover is married, he still misses her. Even Aiwujiwu cares about her son and takes good care of her."
"If I hadn't visited Master Jicheng this time, I really wouldn't have known about this matter." Nangong Shirong said with a half-smile.
Xu Bai just listened quietly without any strange expression on his face. The teasing between the Hedao Immortal Masters was not something that he, a little shrimp of the Nascent Soul, could participate in.
"Jicheng Immortal Lord, the commander-in-chief of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's garrison. In his previous life, he suffered a curse during the battle with the Five Elders Association and died early. But in this life, he is still alive and well, taking charge of the garrison.
Judging from Nangong Shirong's tone, he seems to have a close relationship with Jicheng." Xu Bai thought to himself.
"That old guy Guan Xingxiu is so angry that ordinary people can't stop him. Even if it's Master Jicheng's face, he may not give it to him. It's better to send him away quickly. You investigated Guan Changge's disappearance case.
How's it going?" After muttering for a while, Nangong Shirong asked.
So Xu Bai reported in detail the disappearances of monks that had occurred in Tianliang Prefecture over the years that he had discovered.
"Wuliangbi?" As if he remembered something, a trace of surprise flashed in Nangong Shirong's eyes.
"Who else knows about this besides you?" he asked quickly.
"The villain didn't say anything. He has been waiting for the adults to come back." Xu Bai answered decisively.
Nangong Shirong was very satisfied: "Very good. The previous disappearances should be treated as if they never happened. It was just an individual case! Don't let other people have unreasonable associations!"
"Next, you come with me to Wuliangbi to see if we can rescue that boy Guan Changge." Nangong Shirong ordered.
"The villain obeys your orders!"
They didn't gather too many people. They just brought Xu Bai and three other Nascent Soul disciples, Nangong Shirong, to the foot of Wuliang Mountain.
At this moment, no image appears on the smooth mountain.
Not very close, but watching from afar.
"I have been to this boundless wall before when I was a Nascent Soul monk. I also had a lot of encounters at that time."
As if trapped in old memories, Nangong Shirong's eyes were in a trance, and he spoke slowly after a long time.
The other three Nascent Soul cultivators did not answer, but Xu Bai asked with a slightly surprised tone: "Is it possible, sir, that you have also seen strange scenes on this infinite wall?"
Nangong Shirong chuckled: "It's not that I've seen it before, but I've also been trapped in this infinite wall."
"But I broke through the wall very quickly, so I just thought it was an illusion that occurred when I was enlightened. Over the years, I have never heard of anyone who had the same experience as me, so I slowly forgot about it.
Already."
